brain SO long she could have quite put the old
sorrows aside. AS the years went on, she
could even have come at last to regard as
comedy the tragedy of her life. Toiling with
enthusiasm OF the work one has chosen is
greather than happiness or riches-yea,
greater than love itself.
AS it was, though, her life was so hard, SO
different from oil she had planned or dreamed
of. twenty years before. Robert Edgerly
came faithfully over the water to see her
every year or two, sometimes with Brownie,
sometimes without. Once, too, the charming
| old father came, and his visit was lke an
| oasis in her desert of toll.
One winter, when Shirley went to Wash
| ington for The Morning Herald, Robert
| Edgerly went with her. She was now dis
tinguished newspaper woman. Her descrip-
| tion Of events was at once brilliant and accu-
rate. Unmoved at all times BY the glories OF
the reign Of bosh everywhere about her, she
saw fact, and kept to it.
The rising star in American politics at this
| time was congressman from a western state.
| He was not precisely what we call man of
the people, though he had made his own way
in the world. But it was a poor way as far
| as getting riches was concerned. He might
have become wealthy dozen times, but he
held in burning contempt the methods Of en-
riching himself which come SO easy to many
men in public life. He was a man incor
ruptible by money In any shape There had
been that in his life which made the ease and
wealth men sigEed for, to be no more than
vile dross fer aim. What did hs care for
money!
| In this country poor man must be pow
crful man intellectually, and have very win
ming ways to impress himself sufficiently on
his fellow freemen TO get their votes IN the
beginning. They demand either uncommon
! talent and honesty or uncommon wealth,
